Normal Distribution Unit Test 2019-2020

This document is a unit test on normal distributions for a class. It contains: 1. 5 multiple choice questions testing properties and characteristics of the normal distribution curve. 2. Problems involving sketching the normal distribution curve and determining areas under the curve above and below given z-values. 3. A word problem asking students to calculate the expected number of male adults with heights between 1.4 and 1.6 meters, given the population mean and standard deviation.

The heights of male adults are normally distributed with mean 1.7 m and standard deviation 0.2 m. In a
population of 400 male adults, how many would you expect to have height between 1.4 m and 1.6 m?
[Hint: P (1.4 < z < 1.6) ]
